### 4.1.4. The GetResponse-PDU

The form of the GetResponse-PDU is identical to that of the GetRequest-PDU except for the indication of the PDU type. In the ASN.1 language:

                      GetResponse-PDU ::=
                          [2]
                              IMPLICIT SEQUENCE {
                                  request-id
                                      RequestID,

                                  error-status
                                      ErrorStatus,

                                  error-index
                                      ErrorIndex,

                                  variable-bindings
                                      VarBindList
                              }

The GetResponse-PDU is generated by a protocol entity only upon receipt of the GetRequest-PDU, GetNextRequest-PDU, or SetRequest-PDU, as described elsewhere in this document.

Upon receipt of the GetResponse-PDU, the receiving protocol entity presents its contents to its SNMP application entity.
